Full description
Do you like adventure? Then you can't miss river trekking in the Natisone river, in the province of Udine not far from the border with Slovenia, an area characterised by beautiful valleys rich in lush, unspoilt nature.
Walking and swimming in the water in a section of the canyon will be a unique and fun experience. You will take on an exciting and spectacular 2.5 km route completely safely, under the guidance of an expert, and discover ravines that can only be reached on foot.
Immerse yourself for 2½ hours in the Natisone River Park, among caves, green lianas, rapids and local fauna. You will feel like a real explorer!
What we will do
We will meet at 11 a.m. in San Pietro al Natisone, at the indicated meeting point. Here we will receive all the necessaryequipment to face the route safely: neoprene wetsuit, life jacket, helmet and waterproof bag.
The guide will give an introductory briefing lasting about half an hour, explaining the surrounding landscape and the characteristics of the route in the Natisone River Park.
We will reach the river on foot, descending into the canyon right near the meeting point. Standing between the high walls that act as a barrier to the outside world and looking at the sky from a depth of 30-40 metres will be a unique emotion.
The river trekking route will be 2.5 km long and will include stretches where we will walk and others with deep water where we will have to swim. To make the experience even more fun and adventurous, we can dive off the rocks and let the rapids carry us away. The not-too-cold water temperature will allow us to enjoy the moment to the full and admire the scenic passages between the river boulders in peace.
Once we have completed the route, a van transfer will take us back to our starting point in a few minutes. On the way back, we will have toilets and an area to change at the place where we met.
The experience will last a total of two and a half hours.
